Execution of under age teenagers continues in the Islamic Republic of Iran

According to German radio, the Islamic Republic is one of the few governments which still executes children and teenagers under the legal age.

At present at least 23 boys and girls under the age of 18 are in the dungeons of the Islamic regime, waiting to be executed.

Though in many countries around the world the death penalty has been abolished, in Iran, under the oppression of the clerical regime, the number of those executed each year escalates.

The Islamic Republic regularly executes women, children and even the elderly.
After China, Tehran’s regime is the second highest ranking in the number of executions in the world.
